Questions

How big is the Block RotaryEncoder Button PCB?

It measures 24.1 × 24.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Block RotaryEncoder Button use?

11 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Block RotaryEncoder Button KiCad files?

From the DennisSchulmeister/ModularMusicController repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Block-RotaryEncoder-Button/KiCAD/Block-RotaryEncoder-Button.kicad_pcb and its schematic Experiments/LCD-Board/doc/schematic/LCD-Board.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Block RotaryEncoder Button design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
